Our Bellingham car pool location is a shared business parking lot area with Starbucks - 3101 Old Fairhaven Pkwy, on the SW corner of lot.
Take last south Freeway Exit #250 (Old Fairhaven Pkwy), turn right (west) onto Old Fairhaven Pkwy, and immediately turn right into parking area, or immediately right past Starbucks, and right again into parking area.
We leave 10:30 AM from that parking area to Burlington Haggen meet.
*******************************************************************************
For those driving strait to meeting location:
Take I-5 exit 230 - Hwy 20 exit, take a right and very briefly head east and take a right on Hagen Dr to the store.
To find the room, enter the Main entrance to Hagen's Grocery Store, turn left, walk down past the registers, and to your left will be the community meeting room with big glass windows and a door in at the end.
Hagen provides the community room at no charge, so in kind feel inspired to pick up hot or cold lunch and and drinks in the Hagen food and beverage area - both are welcome in the meeting room. Or, on the way out, pick up some needed groceries.
**************************************************************************
Our THINK TANK TOPIC:
#1) What are our common values?: Can we list several values we can all agree with, those that draw us together and what are they?
Please draw up your own list of important values, share them with us and see if we all agree.
And if so motivated, we will begin to officially spell those values out, spend many meetings attempting to clarify, simplify, criticise, then wash, rinse and repeat until our unified effort shines like a work of art that we can all beam with a sense of pride!
And of course we will have fun getting off topic into current affairs and what ever else we all happen to bring to the table.
*******************************************************************************
If you have a topic for us to consider for this meeting, please email me at SecularWorld@aol.com. If you have an article to share or a short video to watch, send me the link to both. Feel free to bring and share the latest book you may have read to the meeting!

We encourage attendees to share their life story that lead their journey to the 'Land of Freethought', Free Inquiry and Skepticism towards cultural norms, traditions and stories.
Freethought encourage creative solutions, but then this group uses reason, evidence and the scientific method as the only reliable means to prune down answers to our probing questions and common sense solutions to humanity's current problems.
